Tamara Mello
A petite, spunky, tousle-haired California girl best known for her role as activist and outcast Lily on "Popular" (The WB, 1999-2001), actress Tamara Mello got her start in the early 1990s, racking up independent film credits before landing on the aptly-named teen comedy-drama. Mello got her start in the mockumentary "...And God Spoke" in 1993, and the following year acted in an episode of the CBS drama "Sweet Justice." 1995 saw her take a small supporting role in the hit spoof "The Brady Bunch Movie," and in 1997 she was featured in the less successful comedy "The Beautician and the Beast."
